Specific human rights treaties Sample Clauses

Specific human rights treaties. Several specific human rights treaties include references to women in prison, or are otherwise relevant to women in prison. Below treaties on torture, war, children and labor are briefly discussed. Both the 1984 UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT) and the 1987 European Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT) may be of special relevance to women in prison. This is particularly so because ‘degrading treatment’ may be defined differently in the case of women. Both Conventions have monitoring bodies to examine the treatment of persons deprived of their liberty. The European Committee for the Prevention of Torture (also CPT) has issued recommendations on the treatment of female prisoners in its 10th annual report.22 20 Art. 3 ICCPR, Art. 3 ICESC, Art. 2 ACHPR, Art. 1 ACHR, Arts 1 and 2 ASEAN Human Rights Declaration, Art. 14 ECHR, but also Art. 15 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), an international human rights treaty that specifically concerns women, discussed below.
